Welcome to the second of the Airmageddon semifinals. | 0:00:02 | 0:00:04 | |
-32 drone teams started this journey to air supremacy... -Ohh! | 0:00:04 | 0:00:07 | |
-..but after crashes, dashes, and flights of glory... -Oh, yes! | 0:00:07 | 0:00:10 | |
..only eight of the UK's finest fliers remain. | 0:00:10 | 0:00:14 | |
Now, four of these teams, with their customised drones, | 0:00:14 | 0:00:16 | |
-will duel it out for a coveted place... -Go for it. | 0:00:16 | 0:00:19 | |
..in the grand final, to take the trophy and the title. | 0:00:19 | 0:00:22 | |
But who will triumph? Find out in Airmageddon, the semifinals. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:26 | |
Welcome to our semifinals here on Airmageddon. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
We've got four returning teams, all winners in their own right, but | 0:00:51 | 0:00:55 | |
now they're really going to have to raise their game if they want | 0:00:55 | 0:00:58 | |
to earn a place in our grand final. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:00 | |
Yup, they might be the best of the best, but will they better our new | 0:01:00 | 0:01:04 | |
and improved airsault course, and the tougher trials of the airena? | 0:01:04 | 0:01:08 | |
Yes, we've ramped up the difficulty for the semis. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:10 | |
The question is, can they handle it? | 0:01:10 | 0:01:12 | |
I think so. These guys hope so. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:16 | |
-BOTH: -Let's meet our aviators. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:18 | |
First up, and spinning into action, it's Team Vortex! | 0:01:18 | 0:01:22 | |
Second to emerge, it's Grenville's Guardians. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
Next out it's those cunning Flying Foxes. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:29 | |
And finally, flying out, it's Air Farce One. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:34 | |
Good luck, teams. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:37 | |
Welcome back, semifinalists. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:38 | |
Are you guys ready to take on Airmageddon again? | 0:01:38 | 0:01:41 | |
-ALL: -Yeah! | 0:01:41 | 0:01:42 | |
Excellent stuff. OK, well, Grenville's Guardians. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:45 | |
So, Benji, you've been here before, right? | 0:01:45 | 0:01:47 | |
How excited are you to be doing it again? | 0:01:47 | 0:01:49 | |
-I'm crazily excited. It's actually amazing. -Brilliant. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:52 | |
Flying Foxes, how have you been preparing for this, the semifinals? | 0:01:52 | 0:01:56 | |
In the time that we've had we've been practising loads. | 0:01:56 | 0:01:59 | |
-So, prepare, everyone, to be beaten. -Ooh! -Oh, ho-ho! | 0:01:59 | 0:02:02 | |
They're sounding really confident! | 0:02:02 | 0:02:04 | |
Well, there you have it, our four semifinalists. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:06 | |
But thankfully, only one PIG. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
PIG? Where is he? | 0:02:09 | 0:02:10 | |
PIG GRUNTS | 0:02:10 | 0:02:12 | |
These guys are supposed to be the best of the best, | 0:02:15 | 0:02:17 | |
so for the semifinal the airsault course | 0:02:17 | 0:02:19 | |
has been beefed up to provide a meatier test. | 0:02:19 | 0:02:22 | |
And I don't mean we're rolled the PIG in a bacon blanket. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:24 | |
It's not Christmas! Chill out! | 0:02:24 | 0:02:25 | |
Sure, there's four of your standard airsault gates to navigate, | 0:02:25 | 0:02:28 | |
you've seen them before. But don't be complacent. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:31 | |
The pesky Pillars provide a potent early challenge, | 0:02:31 | 0:02:34 | |
before it's time to deliver a sack of drones through the letterboxes. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:37 | |
Teams must feel their way through the foggy corridor like | 0:02:37 | 0:02:40 | |
blind mice along a skirting board before something | 0:02:40 | 0:02:43 | |
so dynamic it will blow their tiny minds... | 0:02:43 | 0:02:46 | |
A horizontal gate! | 0:02:46 | 0:02:48 | |
Breaking news! We've literally flipped the Earth on its axis! | 0:02:48 | 0:02:52 | |
Then, the big one. A souped-up vortex. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
Toned up, tuned up, it's more powerful, | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
and stretched as high as a school prom limo. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:04 | |
Hollywood flying required. | 0:03:04 | 0:03:05 | |
Then, over the line and home in time for din-dins, but slack off | 0:03:05 | 0:03:08 | |
in this semi, and you'll be the team left eating scraps on your way home. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:12 | |
Four drones versus our beefed up airsault course, versus the clock, | 0:03:12 | 0:03:16 | |
versus one of our resident drones. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
Let's find out who's on patrol and causing havoc. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:21 | |
Spin the selector. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |
It's the DRAGON. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:25 | |
Yes, it's tetchy, it's unreliable, | 0:03:25 | 0:03:27 | |
and it has breath that could strip paint. It's my sister! | 0:03:27 | 0:03:30 | |
I mean, the DRAGON! | 0:03:30 | 0:03:32 | |
Well, the airsault course has got tougher, | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
but are our aviators tough enough? | 0:03:34 | 0:03:37 | |
Let's find out. It's Grenville's Guardians! | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
First to face this turbo-charged semifinal airsault course is | 0:03:39 | 0:03:43 | |
Grenville's Guardians. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:44 | |
Aviator Benji is a county-level basketball player, | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
so airtime should not be a problem. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:49 | |
With wing-uncle and speedy biker Stuart, | 0:03:49 | 0:03:50 | |
they had a tricky time in their heat, scraping through the | 0:03:50 | 0:03:53 | |
airsault course in third, not least because of this epic move. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:56 | |
Look at that! | 0:03:56 | 0:03:57 | |
Good recovery. | 0:03:57 | 0:03:58 | |
But took joint first in the bottle bash, and then raised their | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
game even more for glory with a 4-0 squashing of the Arachnerds. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:05 | |
Seemed harsh - they could have just put them out the window! | 0:04:05 | 0:04:09 | |
Welcome back. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:10 | |
Are you going to try and repeat that kind of showmanship today? | 0:04:10 | 0:04:13 | |
Um. Not really, I think today I'm going to try and get a good, | 0:04:13 | 0:04:17 | |
steady speed and then maybe leave the acrobatics until the final. | 0:04:17 | 0:04:20 | |
Right, and I think sensible is going to be key, because out there | 0:04:20 | 0:04:23 | |
today the airsault course... It's really, really difficult. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:26 | |
So, I'm wishing you both good luck! | 0:04:26 | 0:04:28 | |
Aviators - stand by. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:29 | |
Fire up your motors. Rev up your rotors. | 0:04:31 | 0:04:34 | |
You're cleared for take off! | 0:04:34 | 0:04:36 | |
Yo, Marshy, had a spruce up for the big semi? | 0:04:36 | 0:04:38 | |
Got yourself some new voice software? | 0:04:38 | 0:04:41 | |
Have you got a new face, yet? | 0:04:41 | 0:04:42 | |
Wow, that's harsh, man. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:44 | |
I just prefer voice work, OK? | 0:04:44 | 0:04:45 | |
Launch in three... | 0:04:45 | 0:04:47 | |
two... | 0:04:47 | 0:04:48 | |
one. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:50 | |
And Benji lifts the Guardians into the airena for the first run | 0:04:50 | 0:04:53 | |
of the semifinal airsault course. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:55 | |
Will the pressure of flying first for a final spot throw them | 0:04:55 | 0:04:58 | |
into a frenzy of furious flameouts and failures? | 0:04:58 | 0:05:00 | |
Or will I get over this terrible fixation with the letter F? | 0:05:00 | 0:05:03 | |
Textbook moving through the first gate, | 0:05:03 | 0:05:05 | |
like one of Benji's famous lasagnes sliding into the oven at home. | 0:05:05 | 0:05:09 | |
Cheesy. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:10 | |
Watch those flames, though, | 0:05:10 | 0:05:11 | |
or this green-flagged monster of a drone could be toasted cheese. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:14 | |
That's it. Come around. That's it. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:16 | |
This is steady and smooth stuff from Benji, here. | 0:05:16 | 0:05:19 | |
-Can I do a flip? -That's it. No, no, no flips. | 0:05:20 | 0:05:23 | |
Flips? Are you mad, Benji? | 0:05:23 | 0:05:25 | |
Remember what happened last time! | 0:05:25 | 0:05:26 | |
Sure, it looked great and you got all that fan mail from | 0:05:26 | 0:05:29 | |
the Red Arrows and Tom Daley, but man. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:32 | |
Oh, he's joking. LOLs. | 0:05:32 | 0:05:34 | |
Second letterbox signed and sealed. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:36 | |
You're doing so well, fella. | 0:05:40 | 0:05:42 | |
He's shaky and not very bakey, but he's through the hoop. | 0:05:42 | 0:05:45 | |
It's not a hoop, sorry! It's a gate. Gate. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:48 | |
But the foggy corridor is where teams can come unstuck. | 0:05:48 | 0:05:51 | |
Crosswinds, four big Pillars, | 0:05:51 | 0:05:52 | |
and that fog is harvested directly from my bathroom after a long soak. | 0:05:52 | 0:05:56 | |
Then you're coming back to us and you're through this hoop, yeah? | 0:05:56 | 0:05:59 | |
But not a bother for Benji. Stuart really doesn't have much to do. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:02 | |
This ice-cool aviator owns this show. | 0:06:02 | 0:06:04 | |
But now for the horizontal gate. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:06 | |
Getting a perfect glidepath up, | 0:06:06 | 0:06:08 | |
and then smoothly down is a real test of spatial awareness. | 0:06:08 | 0:06:11 | |
And - oh! | 0:06:11 | 0:06:12 | |
-You've got it, you've got it! -That's a rim strike. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:14 | |
You'd expect a slam dunk from a basketball nut, | 0:06:14 | 0:06:16 | |
but instead he's tried an in-off, and thrown his team into a spin. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:19 | |
And has it shaken Benji's bottle? | 0:06:19 | 0:06:21 | |
No, he's handling this wrapped-up airsault course like a pro. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:24 | |
He plays rugby at home, | 0:06:24 | 0:06:26 | |
so a little dink on the drone is nothing to this fly half. | 0:06:26 | 0:06:29 | |
Get it? | 0:06:29 | 0:06:31 | |
So, onto the new, more vertically volumous vortex. | 0:06:31 | 0:06:34 | |
Right, now you can go up. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:36 | |
Throw it up, mate. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:37 | |
This aviator letting the updraft do the work, here. | 0:06:37 | 0:06:40 | |
Just needs to maintain a steady hand if he's to navigate the new | 0:06:40 | 0:06:43 | |
blocking bars at the top of The Vortex. | 0:06:43 | 0:06:44 | |
And they're through! Awesome air time! | 0:06:44 | 0:06:47 | |
Now, a race to the final gate. Don't lose focus, gents. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:50 | |
Nobody wants to see a near-perfect run shattered into | 0:06:50 | 0:06:53 | |
a million pieces, and your dreams in tatters. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:55 | |
Well, except maybe the DRAGON and the other teams. | 0:06:55 | 0:06:58 | |
It looks like Dragon's finally ready to release the jalfrezi at | 0:06:58 | 0:07:02 | |
the final pass. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:04 | |
That was close! The drone getting a seat warmer, there! | 0:07:06 | 0:07:10 | |
-But Benji has sold DRAGON a hard-court dummy. -Well done. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:14 | |
And he floors it over the line for a finishing time 2.56. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:17 | |
Good work there, but is that time competitive on the souped-up course? | 0:07:17 | 0:07:21 | |
Time will tell. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:22 | |
Grenville's Guardians! | 0:07:22 | 0:07:24 | |
Oh, my gosh, Benji, you made that look super easy. | 0:07:24 | 0:07:27 | |
-But, you did find our horizontal hoop a little bit tricky. -Yeah. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:30 | |
What happened there? | 0:07:30 | 0:07:31 | |
I kind of... I thought I was going straight through the middle, | 0:07:31 | 0:07:35 | |
but I wasn't. I was a bit closer. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:37 | |
-Do you think you've done enough to get through? -Yeah. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:40 | |
Well, we shall see. | 0:07:40 | 0:07:42 | |
Net, it's Team Vortex. | 0:07:42 | 0:07:44 | |
Aviator Joel is a veteran model flyer, | 0:07:44 | 0:07:46 | |
and so is dad and wingman Christian. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:48 | |
And didn't they prove it in their heat. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:50 | |
With a covetous 26 second airsault course lead. | 0:07:50 | 0:07:53 | |
They only took laps by a drone's nose, though, | 0:07:53 | 0:07:55 | |
but reasserted themselves with a 4-2 dust up in The Dogfight. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:59 | |
Eat my lasers! | 0:07:59 | 0:08:00 | |
Joel, last time, | 0:08:00 | 0:08:01 | |
you were the fastest around the airsault course in your heats. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:04 | |
What are you going to do to kind of replicate that success? | 0:08:04 | 0:08:07 | |
Bearing in mind that it is more difficult now. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:09 | |
I'm going to attack everything and do it as quickly and | 0:08:09 | 0:08:11 | |
efficiently as I can. | 0:08:11 | 0:08:13 | |
Brilliant. Fingers crossed, OK. Aviators. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:15 | |
It's the semifinal. Stand by. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:17 | |
Fire up your motors. Rev up those rotors. | 0:08:17 | 0:08:20 | |
You're cleared for takeoff. | 0:08:20 | 0:08:22 | |
Look at them, waving and smiling. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:24 | |
But will they be waving and smiling at the end, or crying and rocking? | 0:08:24 | 0:08:27 | |
Vortex launch in three... | 0:08:27 | 0:08:29 | |
two... | 0:08:29 | 0:08:31 | |
one. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:33 | |
-Go. -Team Vortex are away. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:35 | |
Go on. Go on, go on. | 0:08:35 | 0:08:37 | |
Clear, push through. | 0:08:37 | 0:08:39 | |
Lovely. Roll right. | 0:08:39 | 0:08:40 | |
That is one vocal wingdad. | 0:08:40 | 0:08:43 | |
And Joel racing through the first Pillars, too. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:45 | |
Will he use some of his dance skills? | 0:08:45 | 0:08:46 | |
-Come back, come back. -Well, that's like no dance I've ever seen! | 0:08:46 | 0:08:49 | |
What would you call that? The Swing About A Bit And Nearly Crash dance? | 0:08:49 | 0:08:52 | |
It ain't pretty, but it's quick. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:53 | |
-A bit like the Air Marshall on the toilet. -At least I flush. | 0:08:53 | 0:08:57 | |
Once, all right! And there had been an incredible amount of popcorn! | 0:08:57 | 0:09:00 | |
Push on. Push. There you go. Lovely. | 0:09:00 | 0:09:02 | |
Yes, express delivery through the letterboxes, there. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:04 | |
Dad Christian is really working hard with the directions as | 0:09:04 | 0:09:07 | |
his young son and pilot feels the pressure of this semifinal. | 0:09:07 | 0:09:11 | |
In you come, in you come. Push on a little bit. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:13 | |
Forward, forward. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:14 | |
And Team Vortex looking to be tasting the turbulence in the | 0:09:14 | 0:09:18 | |
-not-so-foggy corridor! -And again, and again. Right. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:21 | |
-Right, the horizontal gate. -Come on, Joel, it's the semi, up you go. | 0:09:21 | 0:09:25 | |
-Straight up, straight up. -Joel, of course, does parkour. | 0:09:25 | 0:09:27 | |
Will that help him now? | 0:09:27 | 0:09:29 | |
Yes! He's smashed it. And now for the all-new vortex for Team Vortex. | 0:09:29 | 0:09:34 | |
Any suggestion that they've inside knowledge of how this works in | 0:09:34 | 0:09:37 | |
a sponsor tie-in is utterly denied by their lawyers. | 0:09:37 | 0:09:41 | |
They're in. But can they ride the thermals clear of the bars? | 0:09:41 | 0:09:44 | |
They can! | 0:09:44 | 0:09:45 | |
DRAGON not happy about that, but his puff looks a bit puny there. | 0:09:45 | 0:09:49 | |
They're through the next gates, but DRAGON is angry, | 0:09:49 | 0:09:52 | |
and brought a bit extra to the party. | 0:09:52 | 0:09:54 | |
Flaming Nora! | 0:09:54 | 0:09:55 | |
But Joel throws a ballroom-swerve to slip past the DRAGON, and 1.33?! | 0:09:55 | 0:09:58 | |
-That's madness! -Good lad. | 0:09:58 | 0:10:00 | |
That's right, Christian. Joel has earned some props there. | 0:10:00 | 0:10:03 | |
There was a bit of a wobble halfway through. | 0:10:03 | 0:10:05 | |
They're normally sure assured. Look at that effort there, though. | 0:10:05 | 0:10:08 | |
I mean, that time was sick. | 0:10:08 | 0:10:10 | |
Team Vortex! Wow! | 0:10:10 | 0:10:12 | |
Come in. Joel, 1.33. How do you feel about that? | 0:10:12 | 0:10:17 | |
It's amazing. I can't believe... | 0:10:17 | 0:10:18 | |
I've beat my other score, so it's great. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:20 | |
Well, you're definitely through. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:22 | |
There are two more teams left. | 0:10:22 | 0:10:24 | |
Not sure anyone's going to beat that time. | 0:10:24 | 0:10:26 | |
Time confirmed. | 0:10:26 | 0:10:28 | |
That was some serious speed by Team Vortex, who come in at 1.33, | 0:10:28 | 0:10:32 | |
to knock a whopping 1.23 of the Guardians' time. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:35 | |
That puts the greens into the drop zone and sets Vortex up as | 0:10:35 | 0:10:38 | |
the early favourites for the final. | 0:10:38 | 0:10:40 | |
The Flying Foxes, Rohan and Dhruv, are enthusiastic flyers, | 0:10:42 | 0:10:46 | |
and that's gone a long way when the odds were stacked against them. | 0:10:46 | 0:10:49 | |
Second place in their airsault, | 0:10:49 | 0:10:50 | |
a scoreless second spot in the drop... | 0:10:50 | 0:10:53 | |
Aww! No! | 0:10:53 | 0:10:55 | |
But, a convincing 4-1 dogfight win proves that staying power and | 0:10:55 | 0:10:58 | |
-persistence... -We won! -..pays off in the end. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:01 | |
So, Rohan, now that you're up here in the semifinals, | 0:11:01 | 0:11:04 | |
what do you make of the new airsault course? | 0:11:04 | 0:11:06 | |
-It looks good, but we're still going to beat it. -Ha-ha! | 0:11:06 | 0:11:09 | |
He's just so confident. | 0:11:09 | 0:11:11 | |
Without further ado, let's get you I the air. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:13 | |
Aviators - stand by. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:15 | |
Get your motors started. Get your rotors revved. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:20 | |
You're cleared for takeoff! | 0:11:20 | 0:11:21 | |
Flying Foxes launch in three... | 0:11:21 | 0:11:24 | |
two... | 0:11:24 | 0:11:25 | |
one. | 0:11:25 | 0:11:27 | |
The Flying Foxes are very much the peoples' champions. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:30 | |
-They've captured hearts...if not any records. -Forward. | 0:11:30 | 0:11:33 | |
They need to find some extra ninja-style Zen for the | 0:11:33 | 0:11:35 | |
semifinal, or it's sayonara. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:38 | |
Let's join them at the last letterboxes, | 0:11:38 | 0:11:40 | |
having roundhouse kicked all the previous obstacles' bottoms. | 0:11:40 | 0:11:44 | |
-Forward. -And their rotors are ka-rat-ey! -What? -ka-rat-ey! -Pardon? | 0:11:44 | 0:11:47 | |
All right, karate chopping through the air to take them through | 0:11:47 | 0:11:50 | |
to that gate. | 0:11:50 | 0:11:51 | |
Down... Oh, I can't see it. | 0:11:51 | 0:11:53 | |
Round for the foggy corridor. | 0:11:53 | 0:11:54 | |
Visibility down to just centimetres in there. | 0:11:54 | 0:11:57 | |
But these two spent 13 years sat on top of a volcano | 0:11:57 | 0:12:01 | |
contemplating drone-flying through fog. True fact. | 0:12:01 | 0:12:04 | |
Right, go left, go left. | 0:12:04 | 0:12:05 | |
So, can their martial arts sixth sense guide them through? | 0:12:05 | 0:12:09 | |
-Ooh, that's almost... It's close to touching down. -Up. | 0:12:09 | 0:12:12 | |
-Nearly a judo roll up and back into action for a lotus leap. -Whoa! | 0:12:12 | 0:12:16 | |
Into the air again, and through the horizontal gate. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:20 | |
They are absorbing the pressure, here, | 0:12:20 | 0:12:23 | |
of this semifinal, like a sumo-wrestler's fundoshi. | 0:12:23 | 0:12:26 | |
A sumo-wrester's pants, that is. | 0:12:26 | 0:12:28 | |
All right, down, down. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:29 | |
Oh! The DRAGON's in the air. | 0:12:29 | 0:12:32 | |
-Nasty side, that. -Wow. | 0:12:32 | 0:12:33 | |
And the DRAGON bringing something a bit extra to the party, there. | 0:12:33 | 0:12:37 | |
-We're looking for a line through. -Yeah? -Yep. -Beneath? -Yep. | 0:12:37 | 0:12:41 | |
Into The Vortex. | 0:12:41 | 0:12:43 | |
-Whoa! -Steady, Will. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:45 | |
-You're up. Go back. -That was cool. | 0:12:45 | 0:12:48 | |
Rohan and Dhruv never give up, they never say die, | 0:12:48 | 0:12:51 | |
but have they got enough to hold their Zen on the final obstacles? | 0:12:51 | 0:12:55 | |
Peoples' champion or not, DRAGON deploys the fiery tongue of fury.. | 0:12:55 | 0:13:00 | |
-Left, left, lots, lots. -But Rohan and Dhruv | 0:13:00 | 0:13:02 | |
go low, determined, and over the line in 2.36. | 0:13:02 | 0:13:05 | |
And Rohan looks relieved. | 0:13:05 | 0:13:07 | |
It think it was harder than he expected in the revamped | 0:13:07 | 0:13:09 | |
airsault course. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:11 | |
I think, hand on heart, he didn't know too much about The Vortex | 0:13:11 | 0:13:13 | |
after he got the drone in position. | 0:13:13 | 0:13:15 | |
But right place right time is all that matters in the semifinal. | 0:13:15 | 0:13:18 | |
Flying Foxes, wow! You flew round that course, didn't you? | 0:13:18 | 0:13:22 | |
-How did you find it out there? -Easy. It was very easy. | 0:13:22 | 0:13:25 | |
Well, as it stands, you know, you're going to go through to the | 0:13:25 | 0:13:28 | |
next round, so let's go and see the final people, how they get on. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:31 | |
Time confirmed. | 0:13:31 | 0:13:32 | |
The semifinal leaderboard is shaping up. | 0:13:32 | 0:13:35 | |
Firmly on top with a white-hot 1.33 is Team Vortex. | 0:13:35 | 0:13:38 | |
Sliding into second are the Flying Foxes. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:40 | |
Not a patch on Vortex, but 2.36 is still a good 20 seconds | 0:13:40 | 0:13:44 | |
quicker than current drop-zone residents Grenville's Guardians. | 0:13:44 | 0:13:48 | |
Next up, Air Farce One are Alex and wingman dad, Hugh. | 0:13:49 | 0:13:52 | |
Alex likes anything with wheels, even one wheel. | 0:13:52 | 0:13:54 | |
No, not a wheelbarrow, he's got a unicycle. | 0:13:54 | 0:13:57 | |
Dad Hugh is a cool-headed company man, | 0:13:57 | 0:13:59 | |
and that cool head helped set up their win in their heat by | 0:13:59 | 0:14:02 | |
smashing their leaderboard with a whopping 30 second lead in airsault. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:06 | |
They never looked back, with a clean 5-bunch sweep in balloon burst... | 0:14:06 | 0:14:09 | |
-Ooh! -..before a dogfight victory over Team Parallel. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:12 | |
How seriously are you taking it now you're here in the semis? | 0:14:12 | 0:14:15 | |
-Oh, we're pretty serious now. -Yeah? | 0:14:15 | 0:14:17 | |
Oh, yeah, we really enjoyed the heat, but now we're here to compete. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:21 | |
And that's a treat for all the drones on the street. | 0:14:21 | 0:14:23 | |
But if your stomachs get nervous, we'll put down a sheet! | 0:14:23 | 0:14:25 | |
I love a good poem, me. | 0:14:25 | 0:14:27 | |
Fire up your motors, rev up your rotors. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:31 | |
You're cleared for takeoff! | 0:14:31 | 0:14:33 | |
Air Farce One launch in three... | 0:14:33 | 0:14:35 | |
two... | 0:14:35 | 0:14:36 | |
one. | 0:14:36 | 0:14:38 | |
Air Farce One are on the run, and if they get hungry, they'll have a... | 0:14:38 | 0:14:42 | |
-Enough rhyming. -Yeah, OK. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:44 | |
The fast launch into the airena for the final of these semifinal runs. | 0:14:44 | 0:14:48 | |
And as we join them at the letterboxes, there is nothing | 0:14:48 | 0:14:51 | |
farcical about the time about the time from the Derbyshire drone. | 0:14:51 | 0:14:53 | |
-Perfect. -Very confident flying. | 0:14:53 | 0:14:56 | |
Letterbox one taken on and conquered with no hesitation. | 0:14:56 | 0:14:59 | |
That corner is a bit of time lost, though. Here, look. | 0:14:59 | 0:15:02 | |
90 degrees bad... | 0:15:02 | 0:15:04 | |
45 degrees good. | 0:15:04 | 0:15:06 | |
A bit to the yellow. | 0:15:07 | 0:15:09 | |
-Arcing a little wide for letterbox three. -Left a bit. | 0:15:09 | 0:15:11 | |
Alex needs to heed dad Hugh's advice, there. | 0:15:11 | 0:15:14 | |
This is farcical flight control, he's flying like he's... | 0:15:14 | 0:15:17 | |
on a unicycle... | 0:15:17 | 0:15:18 | |
-on a beach ball. -Slow down a bit. | 0:15:18 | 0:15:20 | |
They'll need to compose themselves. | 0:15:20 | 0:15:22 | |
No, Hugh, that isn't... | 0:15:22 | 0:15:24 | |
Hugh, just spit more rhymes! | 0:15:24 | 0:15:25 | |
Down into the gap for the parallel bars. | 0:15:25 | 0:15:28 | |
You'll be spitting rotor blades if you farce your way through | 0:15:28 | 0:15:30 | |
the foggy corridor, but Alex has found the perfect balance and | 0:15:30 | 0:15:33 | |
the fog has parted on this run. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:35 | |
That's the best pass through so far! | 0:15:35 | 0:15:37 | |
-Higher... -This being a semifinal, the pressure is sure to show. | 0:15:37 | 0:15:41 | |
-Left, left, left... -Alex looks like he needs the loo. | 0:15:41 | 0:15:44 | |
Somebody get the sheet, quick! The pressure's too much. | 0:15:44 | 0:15:47 | |
-What do you mean that's his concentrating face? -Back down. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:49 | |
This is excellent flying, it has to be said. | 0:15:49 | 0:15:52 | |
They are really going for it, this time. They are really going. | 0:15:52 | 0:15:55 | |
Yes, Will, it's the semifinal. Everyone's going for it. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:59 | |
A tense watch for Grenville's Guardians. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:02 | |
Could The Vortex be a blink and miss it affair? | 0:16:02 | 0:16:05 | |
OK, maybe not, but still pacey, | 0:16:05 | 0:16:07 | |
and a springboard for the gate. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:09 | |
Uh-oh, the DRAGON is there. | 0:16:11 | 0:16:13 | |
That's right, Will, but I think the DRAGON is part-timing this, today. | 0:16:13 | 0:16:17 | |
He's a bit-player, a holiday lizard | 0:16:17 | 0:16:18 | |
with rotors, at best. | 0:16:18 | 0:16:20 | |
Over the line 1.50. | 0:16:20 | 0:16:22 | |
That's great. | 0:16:22 | 0:16:24 | |
Not too steady. | 0:16:24 | 0:16:25 | |
There was some fairly farcical wobbles around the course, | 0:16:25 | 0:16:28 | |
but Alex and you-know-Hugh were steady where it counted. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:31 | |
Well done. | 0:16:31 | 0:16:32 | |
OK, well, let's find out how you did. Air Marshall. | 0:16:32 | 0:16:35 | |
Time confirmed. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:37 | |
So, let's look at the final airsault leader board, and Air Farce take | 0:16:37 | 0:16:40 | |
second place beneath Team Vortex, who cement their place at the top. | 0:16:40 | 0:16:44 | |
No surprises that Flying Foxes stay above the drop, | 0:16:44 | 0:16:46 | |
as Grenville's over-cautious run roots them to the drop zone. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:50 | |
Out of the semifinal and grounded for good. Sorry, fellas. | 0:16:50 | 0:16:53 | |
It does mean... | 0:16:53 | 0:16:54 | |
Grenville's Guardians, you have been fabulous, but, for now, | 0:16:54 | 0:16:57 | |
can we give them a round of applause? | 0:16:57 | 0:16:59 | |
Because, Grenville Guardians, you are grounded. | 0:16:59 | 0:17:01 | |
Can I ask you leave? | 0:17:01 | 0:17:04 | |
So, Grenville's Guardians have powered down their | 0:17:04 | 0:17:06 | |
first-person view and set aside their controller. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:09 | |
Three more teams look ahead to being victorious here in the airena. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:13 | |
PIG GRUNTS | 0:17:13 | 0:17:15 | |
Ah. And here's PIG to show them how it's done. | 0:17:15 | 0:17:17 | |
What's the best thing to do when you see a wall? Lean on it? Nah. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:25 | |
Paint a mural? Maybe. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:26 | |
No, you smash it down, you fools! | 0:17:26 | 0:17:28 | |
In this semifinal Wallbusters, we attach wrecking balls to the drones. | 0:17:28 | 0:17:32 | |
I think you can probably guess the rest. This is Wallbusters! | 0:17:32 | 0:17:35 | |
The two teams who knock down the walls the quickest will fly | 0:17:35 | 0:17:38 | |
into The Dogfight. | 0:17:38 | 0:17:40 | |
Blink and you'll miss them, they're sneaky, cheeky, | 0:17:40 | 0:17:43 | |
and they live in your mattress. It's The Bugs. | 0:17:43 | 0:17:45 | |
Batteries are recharged, wrecking balls are attached. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:48 | |
The drones are ready, but are our aviators? | 0:17:48 | 0:17:51 | |
-ALL: -Yeah! | 0:17:51 | 0:17:52 | |
Excellent stuff. OK. Now, Rohan, this is the semifinal. | 0:17:52 | 0:17:56 | |
How much would it mean to you to get through this round, into | 0:17:56 | 0:17:59 | |
The Dogfight, and be in with a chance of | 0:17:59 | 0:18:01 | |
getting through to the grand final? | 0:18:01 | 0:18:03 | |
It would mean everything to us, we've come this far. | 0:18:03 | 0:18:05 | |
It would just be so sad to lose now, so, yeah. | 0:18:05 | 0:18:08 | |
Excellent. Well, I'm sure all the teams feel the same, | 0:18:08 | 0:18:11 | |
so I think we should get this game underway. | 0:18:11 | 0:18:13 | |
Are we all ready for a smashing game? | 0:18:13 | 0:18:15 | |
RECORD SCRATCH Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! | 0:18:15 | 0:18:17 | |
Did Will just crack a terrible pun, there? I believe he did. | 0:18:17 | 0:18:19 | |
Can I get a rewind? | 0:18:19 | 0:18:20 | |
Are we all ready for a smashing game? | 0:18:20 | 0:18:23 | |
Smashing game...sma-sma-sma-smashing game? | 0:18:23 | 0:18:25 | |
DRUMROLL He actually did! | 0:18:25 | 0:18:28 | |
And did you get the pun? | 0:18:28 | 0:18:29 | |
-ALL: -Yeah. -All right, then. | 0:18:29 | 0:18:31 | |
-All right, fair enough. -Aviators - stand by. | 0:18:31 | 0:18:34 | |
Check your systems. | 0:18:36 | 0:18:38 | |
Rev up your rotors. | 0:18:38 | 0:18:40 | |
You're cleared for takeoff! | 0:18:40 | 0:18:41 | |
So, red, yellow and blue teams lined up and ready to race. | 0:18:41 | 0:18:45 | |
Launch in three... | 0:18:45 | 0:18:46 | |
-two... -Here we go. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:48 | |
..one. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:49 | |
Right, no messing, here. Well, plenty of messing, hopefully. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:52 | |
This is the mother of all games. | 0:18:52 | 0:18:54 | |
Smash the wall down in this semifinal, | 0:18:54 | 0:18:55 | |
and you're through to the final Dogfight. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:58 | |
-Oh, back you come. -And that's two down for the blue of Air Farce One. | 0:18:58 | 0:19:01 | |
None for Vortex in red. | 0:19:01 | 0:19:03 | |
Oh, hang on, back for one... | 0:19:03 | 0:19:05 | |
Two points looking like a big score in this game. | 0:19:06 | 0:19:09 | |
-It's going to be tight as the producer's wallet. -Push. | 0:19:09 | 0:19:11 | |
Oh, another quick one for the Farce. Foxes one...no...two! | 0:19:11 | 0:19:15 | |
The reds, Team Vortex, make it five... No, seven! | 0:19:16 | 0:19:19 | |
Vortex opening up a solid lead, here. | 0:19:19 | 0:19:21 | |
Hello, Air Farce One spread themselves and farce down | 0:19:21 | 0:19:24 | |
another three. | 0:19:24 | 0:19:25 | |
Now you're unicycling on gas. | 0:19:25 | 0:19:27 | |
Take them out, take them out. That's it. | 0:19:27 | 0:19:29 | |
Three points for the foxes! Back in the game, never doubted it. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:34 | |
But still reds Vortex and the Farce tickle their totals upwards, | 0:19:34 | 0:19:37 | |
sensing glory. | 0:19:37 | 0:19:39 | |
Yes, Joel. Lovely. Come on. Nice and easy. Nice and easy. | 0:19:41 | 0:19:44 | |
Oh, and that's a game changer from the yellow Foxes! | 0:19:44 | 0:19:47 | |
But look at that, they nearly took themselves out | 0:19:47 | 0:19:49 | |
with their great pendulous ball. | 0:19:49 | 0:19:51 | |
And a slam into the launchpad. We all missed that! | 0:19:51 | 0:19:54 | |
Rohan is like a fox in the headlights, up there. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:59 | |
No brick is safe. But let's hope he doesn't get flattened himself! | 0:19:59 | 0:20:03 | |
He's got the bit between his teeth. A fox-sized bit. | 0:20:03 | 0:20:06 | |
Yes, Joel. | 0:20:06 | 0:20:08 | |
This is as tough and tight a round as Airmageddon has ever produced. | 0:20:08 | 0:20:12 | |
Look, the Farce, well, welcome back to the show, guys. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:16 | |
Careful... | 0:20:16 | 0:20:17 | |
15-12-9, still very close, here. | 0:20:17 | 0:20:20 | |
Oh, that was a hare's whisker away! | 0:20:20 | 0:20:22 | |
Ahh! | 0:20:24 | 0:20:25 | |
I do love this game. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:26 | |
Just go for the top one so you don't hit it with the drone. | 0:20:26 | 0:20:29 | |
Wise words from Hugh, there, | 0:20:29 | 0:20:30 | |
but perhaps now is time to throw caution to the wind. | 0:20:30 | 0:20:33 | |
The Foxes are pushing hard, like a furry bulldozer, | 0:20:33 | 0:20:35 | |
to make The Dogfight. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:36 | |
Yes. One more to do, and then we can land. | 0:20:36 | 0:20:39 | |
That's right, Christian. | 0:20:39 | 0:20:41 | |
All in all there's just another brick in the wall left for you guys. | 0:20:41 | 0:20:44 | |
-AIR MARSHALL: -Team Vortex, round complete. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:46 | |
And Team Vortex clean the board, as the Farce draw level with the Foxes. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:50 | |
Vortex land safely with their precious place in the final secure. | 0:20:50 | 0:20:53 | |
Well done, Vortex. | 0:20:53 | 0:20:54 | |
This is as tight as a sumo wrestler on a unicycle saddle. | 0:20:54 | 0:20:58 | |
Get the tenpin bowling ball out, hit the killer brick! | 0:20:58 | 0:21:01 | |
-A thump to 17 for the Foxes. Will the Farce respond? -Nice and steady. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:04 | |
Get it in a line and just drive away from you. | 0:21:04 | 0:21:06 | |
Just drive away from you. | 0:21:06 | 0:21:08 | |
-Oh! Farce are down! -Oh! -Farce are down. | 0:21:08 | 0:21:11 | |
Alex is gutted, and Air Farce One is flipped. | 0:21:11 | 0:21:14 | |
The Flying Foxes take out their last brick, and... | 0:21:14 | 0:21:16 | |
Whoa! Whoa! | 0:21:16 | 0:21:18 | |
Hang on, there's a crash, too. Now, this is interesting. | 0:21:18 | 0:21:20 | |
Does the crash void the second place? | 0:21:20 | 0:21:22 | |
There's going to be some head-scratching in the | 0:21:22 | 0:21:24 | |
Air Marshall's office. Actually, don't scratch your head | 0:21:24 | 0:21:26 | |
with your rotors, Marshall, that wouldn't be pretty. | 0:21:26 | 0:21:29 | |
And the replay shows Farce took out their final brick with their | 0:21:29 | 0:21:32 | |
rotors, which led to the crash. | 0:21:32 | 0:21:34 | |
And Rowan recklessly threw the drone at the deck. | 0:21:34 | 0:21:36 | |
It was a great finish, but will that cost them? | 0:21:36 | 0:21:39 | |
Scores verified. | 0:21:40 | 0:21:41 | |
So, to the leaderboard, | 0:21:41 | 0:21:43 | |
and a conclusive first position for Team Vortex. | 0:21:43 | 0:21:46 | |
And taking that other coveted dogfight spot... | 0:21:46 | 0:21:48 | |
it's Flying Foxes! | 0:21:48 | 0:21:50 | |
They completed Wallbuster before they hit the deck, | 0:21:50 | 0:21:52 | |
which means they are through. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:54 | |
That means Air Farce One exit stage left, | 0:21:54 | 0:21:56 | |
and are grounded. | 0:21:56 | 0:21:58 | |
-Congratulations, first of all, to Team Vortex! -Yeah! | 0:21:58 | 0:22:01 | |
You guys go through to The Dogfight with the time advantage. | 0:22:01 | 0:22:04 | |
The team that will be joining them is going to be... | 0:22:04 | 0:22:07 | |
-Flying Foxes. -Yes! | 0:22:07 | 0:22:08 | |
Because, guys, you managed to get all of blocks down. | 0:22:08 | 0:22:11 | |
Unfortunately, that does mean that because, Air Farce One, | 0:22:11 | 0:22:15 | |
you crashed and there is a block remaining, | 0:22:15 | 0:22:17 | |
you guys are grounded. | 0:22:17 | 0:22:19 | |
But you made it to the semifinals, | 0:22:19 | 0:22:21 | |
Have you enjoyed being an aviator? | 0:22:21 | 0:22:23 | |
Yeah, I'll never get a chance to fly something like that ever again. | 0:22:23 | 0:22:26 | |
-But it's been well worth it? -It's been well worth it. -Fantastic. | 0:22:26 | 0:22:29 | |
And never say never, guys. Maybe we'll see you | 0:22:29 | 0:22:31 | |
-back here another time... -All right. | 0:22:31 | 0:22:33 | |
..to do even better. Congratulations to you lot. | 0:22:33 | 0:22:35 | |
I'll see you in The Dogfight. | 0:22:35 | 0:22:36 | |
So, time for our two surviving semifinalists to lock rotors | 0:22:40 | 0:22:44 | |
and targeting systems on each other. | 0:22:44 | 0:22:46 | |
This is a dangerous and dynamic drone duel between two | 0:22:46 | 0:22:49 | |
quick-firing pilots. | 0:22:49 | 0:22:51 | |
As always, both flying machines have four lives. | 0:22:51 | 0:22:54 | |
Take a hit, and they'll lose on of them. This is The Dogfight. | 0:22:54 | 0:22:58 | |
It's The Dogfight. The big one. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:05 | |
For a place in the final. | 0:23:05 | 0:23:06 | |
Aviators do the flying, wingmen do the targeting. | 0:23:06 | 0:23:09 | |
Hit your opponents sensor four times, | 0:23:09 | 0:23:11 | |
and avoid getting hit yourself, and glory is yours. | 0:23:11 | 0:23:14 | |
They also have to stay in the combat zone | 0:23:15 | 0:23:18 | |
or risk retaliation from one of our resident drones. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:21 | |
Who's got it in for them here in The Dogfight? | 0:23:21 | 0:23:24 | |
Spin the selector. | 0:23:25 | 0:23:27 | |
It's the WASP. | 0:23:29 | 0:23:30 | |
Fast, and quite literally with a sting in its tail, | 0:23:30 | 0:23:33 | |
this is one of the fiercest drones in the game. | 0:23:33 | 0:23:35 | |
Don't try and catch this one in a jam jar, | 0:23:35 | 0:23:37 | |
unless you've got a two-metre wide jam jar, unlikely. | 0:23:37 | 0:23:41 | |
So, remember, if you stray out of the combat zone, | 0:23:41 | 0:23:44 | |
the WASP may engage. | 0:23:44 | 0:23:46 | |
And that's not going to be pleasant, but guys, | 0:23:46 | 0:23:48 | |
this is The Dogfight for a place in the grand final. | 0:23:48 | 0:23:52 | |
Teams, have you got anything you want to say to each other? | 0:23:52 | 0:23:54 | |
-Foxes never, ever quit. -You're going down. -Ooh. | 0:23:54 | 0:23:57 | |
There we go, and those words take on a extra edge when there is | 0:23:57 | 0:24:00 | |
so much to play for in the semifinal. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:03 | |
All right, then, let's get this battle underway. | 0:24:03 | 0:24:06 | |
Aviators - stand by. | 0:24:06 | 0:24:08 | |
Calibrate your sights. | 0:24:10 | 0:24:12 | |
Rev up your rotors. | 0:24:12 | 0:24:13 | |
This is the Dogfight. | 0:24:13 | 0:24:16 | |
You're cleared for take off. | 0:24:16 | 0:24:18 | |
Vortex launch in three... | 0:24:18 | 0:24:20 | |
two... | 0:24:20 | 0:24:21 | |
-one. -Scramble. | 0:24:21 | 0:24:22 | |
Flying Foxes launch in three... | 0:24:22 | 0:24:25 | |
two... | 0:24:25 | 0:24:26 | |
one. | 0:24:26 | 0:24:28 | |
The heat is on in this semifinal dogfight. | 0:24:31 | 0:24:34 | |
And a crucial five-second lead for deadly, dancing Team Vortex | 0:24:34 | 0:24:37 | |
means they activate their lasers and get set for attack while | 0:24:37 | 0:24:40 | |
the Foxes play catch up. | 0:24:40 | 0:24:42 | |
Both teams now squaring up in this inferno of an airena. | 0:24:42 | 0:24:45 | |
The ruthless red Vortex draw first as expected, | 0:24:45 | 0:24:48 | |
but that is a rangefinder at best. | 0:24:48 | 0:24:50 | |
Foxes wingman Dhruv summons the spirit of the ninja, | 0:24:50 | 0:24:52 | |
and attempts to lock on to, well, thin air, there. | 0:24:52 | 0:24:55 | |
But good to get the thumb warmed-up, Dhruv. | 0:24:55 | 0:24:57 | |
-Vortex lock on - and it's a strike! -Oh, no, they hit us. | 0:24:57 | 0:25:00 | |
Yes they have, Rohan. You guys left yourselves wide open, there. | 0:25:00 | 0:25:03 | |
Time to get your black belt on and get back into the fight. | 0:25:03 | 0:25:06 | |
Bobbing and weaving from both teams. Defensive stuff. | 0:25:09 | 0:25:11 | |
It's not crowd-pleasing, but they're not here to make friends. | 0:25:11 | 0:25:16 | |
-Shoot, shoot, shoot... -I'm shooting. I'm shooting. | 0:25:16 | 0:25:19 | |
But the Flying Foxes make it count with a superb strike! | 0:25:21 | 0:25:24 | |
That's stunning targeting from wingman Dhruv. | 0:25:25 | 0:25:28 | |
That's black belt, second dan thumb-work, mate. | 0:25:28 | 0:25:31 | |
One-a-piece. It's back to the fight. Game on. | 0:25:31 | 0:25:33 | |
Oh! They're coming close to us! They're coming close! | 0:25:35 | 0:25:38 | |
And red-faced Team Vortex are angry now. Pride is hurt. | 0:25:38 | 0:25:42 | |
Whoa! Double strike! | 0:25:42 | 0:25:43 | |
Two hits without so much as a heartbeat between them, | 0:25:43 | 0:25:46 | |
that's merciless stuff from Vortex! | 0:25:46 | 0:25:48 | |
And they look so friendly in the flesh. | 0:25:48 | 0:25:50 | |
Kicking the Foxes while they're down. | 0:25:50 | 0:25:52 | |
One strike, then another slap down! The Foxes are a furry mess. | 0:25:52 | 0:25:55 | |
At this rate, they'll be back sniffing round bins in no time. | 0:25:55 | 0:25:58 | |
And they're reeling. | 0:25:58 | 0:26:00 | |
They're struggling, Fox-juice burning off in the atmosphere, here. | 0:26:00 | 0:26:04 | |
Rohan struggling to keep them in the air, | 0:26:05 | 0:26:07 | |
but Dhruv still getting the shots away. | 0:26:07 | 0:26:09 | |
As they make a tactical, samurai retreat. | 0:26:09 | 0:26:12 | |
Keep going. Your left. | 0:26:14 | 0:26:16 | |
WASP is finally getting involved. | 0:26:16 | 0:26:17 | |
Perhaps a mercy mission to buy the Foxes some time. | 0:26:17 | 0:26:20 | |
-Oh, and... -Oh, no. -Vortex have hit the final blow. | 0:26:22 | 0:26:25 | |
Wingman dad Christian making no mistake. | 0:26:25 | 0:26:27 | |
Vortex look like a flea on a Fox, | 0:26:29 | 0:26:31 | |
sucking the lifeblood out of their attempt on the final. | 0:26:31 | 0:26:34 | |
Sorry, fellas. | 0:26:34 | 0:26:35 | |
Dogfight scores confirmed. | 0:26:35 | 0:26:37 | |
Well, what a semifinal we have been treated to. | 0:26:37 | 0:26:40 | |
And after leading the first two rounds, it's no surprise that | 0:26:40 | 0:26:43 | |
Team Vortex decimated the valiant Foxes, taking all of their lives and | 0:26:43 | 0:26:47 | |
losing only one of theirs on their way to claim The Dogfight crown. | 0:26:47 | 0:26:51 | |
Team Vortex are today's winners by taking all four of the | 0:26:51 | 0:26:54 | |
Flying Foxes lives, and only losing one. Yourself, Joel! | 0:26:54 | 0:26:57 | |
-You're into the final! -Oh, my God, this is amazing. I can't believe it. | 0:26:57 | 0:27:01 | |
-How are you feeling, Christian. -Yeah. Really proud, really proud. | 0:27:01 | 0:27:03 | |
Guys, you were so good. Congratulations, guys. | 0:27:03 | 0:27:06 | |
Amazing stuff. | 0:27:06 | 0:27:07 | |
Unfortunately, Flying Foxes, Rohan, Dhruv, that does mean that, | 0:27:07 | 0:27:11 | |
despite some incredible battling out there, you are grounded. | 0:27:11 | 0:27:15 | |
Have you had a good time on Airmageddon, though? | 0:27:15 | 0:27:17 | |
It's been amazing. We've just been... | 0:27:17 | 0:27:20 | |
We're so lucky to have had this experience. | 0:27:20 | 0:27:23 | |
You did really, really well. | 0:27:23 | 0:27:24 | |
Dhruv, did you ever think you'd get this far? | 0:27:24 | 0:27:27 | |
No. But we got this far, so it's fine. | 0:27:27 | 0:27:29 | |
Guys, well done, but that does mean, Team Vortex, | 0:27:29 | 0:27:31 | |
you're through to the final. How does that sound? | 0:27:31 | 0:27:34 | |
It's amazing, I can't wait to get out there and fly. | 0:27:34 | 0:27:36 | |
I can't wait to see you fly either, guys. Well done. | 0:27:36 | 0:27:39 | |
But, for now, it's time for Airmageddon to power down. | 0:27:39 | 0:27:42 | |
And for these guys to step up. | 0:27:42 | 0:27:43 | |
Next time, the talking stops as the rotors spin | 0:27:50 | 0:27:53 | |
for the final time. | 0:27:53 | 0:27:54 | |
Team Vortex line up against the other semifinal winners, | 0:27:54 | 0:27:57 | |
This Way Up, to see who will take the crown as series two champions. | 0:27:57 | 0:28:01 | |
Yes, it's the Airmageddon Grand Final! | 0:28:01 | 0:28:05 | |
Airmageddon power down. | 0:28:09 | 0:28:11 |
